Because nobody knows more about what we ordinary folks want than this former boyscout choom gang member and entrepreneur community organizer from Middle America Indonesia/Hawaii/Chicago, right?

“Ordinary folks, they do their jobs. They meet deadlines. They sit down and discuss things and then things happen. It there are disagreements they sort through the disagreements. The notion that our elected leadership can’t do the same thing is mind-boggling to them. It needs to stop. So I’m modestly optimistic that an agreement can be achieved. Nobody’s going to get 100% of what they want. But let’s make sure that middle class families and the American economy and in fact the world economy aren’t adversely impacted because people can’t do their jobs.“

On January 1, regardless of the outcome of fiscal cliff negotiations, Americans will be hit with a $1 trillion Obamacare tax hike.

Obamacare contains twenty new or higher taxes. Five of the taxes hit for the first time on January 1. In total, for the years 2013-2022, Americans face a net $1 trillion tax hike for the years 2013-2022, according to the Congressional Budget Office.

Hobby Lobby employees from coast to coast were petitioning the government to force their employer to satisfy their contraception needs – wait…what? There was only one person who did anything like that – a left-wing activist and Democrat ringer named Sandra Fluke? Whoops. My bad.

Many Americans believe the biggest problem the nation currently faces is the so-called fiscal cliff. Unfortunately, the fiscal cliff is nothing compared to the avalanche of new regulations that will be coming in 2013. That Americans remain unaware of this ominous development is understandable. The most transparent administration in history ignored the provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act and a subsequent series of executive orders that require the semi-annual release of all regulations under development or review by some 60 departments, agencies, and commissions. Thus, the April 2012 and October 2012 deadlines came and went without compliance. Now that the election is over, Americans will discover just how all-encompassing Obama and his big-government zealots intend to be.

The scope is staggering. According to the Competitive Enterprise Institute, the overall regulatory burden has reached $1.8 trillion annually, and $215.4 billion in compliance costs have been added in 2012 alone. The OMB’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs website reveals that 4,100 new regulations are in the pipeline, with more than 400 aimed at small businesses, whose compliance costs will exceed those of their larger competitors by 36 percent.

Wow, all that on top of the higher taxes – that’s not going to be helpful to middle class families and the economy at all….

Oh well – at least Obama cared enough about the folks, he cut his Hawaiian vacation short for a photo op.

Just makes me want to pull what little hair I have left out … Frustration level is slowly rising as there seems no answer, no rebuttal in sight. still no one willing to put the CONSTITUTION before re-election and take the administration to task. No one with courage to act.

Prepare yourself, the “big cave” is coming. . . . I feel it.
The first ominous sign was after the White House meeting, the four Leaders walk out the Dali Lama/Benjamin Netenyahu exit of the White House without saying a word. [Real bad vibe] Then Nancy Piglosi looked like she had resorted to the world’s oldest profession [pacing up and down the street] looking for her vehicle. [Very bad vibe] Then shortly after Obozo takes to the podium and tries to play the adult in the negotiations, rather than the community thug that he actually is. [Another bad vibe]

3 Bad Vibes = A huge Republican cave in my book.

[Someone needs to ‘spain to me, how are they going to “backdoor” a Tax Bill initiated from the Senate. Last I checked it’s unconstitutional, not that it has mattered in the last four years with this bunch]
